It's bugged me ever since I made the ADR 6 months ago, so how do you pronounce Akershus?

I was told like acre shoes. It could be wrong though.

I had the same question, so I went up to the host at the restaurant and asked him and he told me 'Ah-ker-shoos (soft "s", I think).

This is how I say it.

The sweaters have always said Uh-ker-shus when I'm there, but they have accents so it could be a little different pronunciation wise.

I've been reading other threads and forums. Some say it's Ah-ker-soos.

I also listened to a sound bit that sounded like Ah-ké-shus.

The waitress forced me to pronounce the name of the meatball dish there. The pronunciation, if read in English, is not DISboards-appropriate

It's named for a part of Norway. Wiki has the ability to listen to the pronunciation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akershus
